Terms of Use

Last updated 10 October 2026

These terms apply to hassanhanif.com (the “site”), run by Hassan Hanif (“I”, “me”). By using the site or sending a message through it, you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the site.

1. Information only, not advice

Everything on the site, including articles, case studies, course outlines, book descriptions and podcast episodes, is general information. It is not professional, technical, legal, financial, tax or business advice for your situation. Don’t act on it without getting advice that fits your circumstances. To the fullest extent the law allows, I’m not responsible for decisions you make based on the site’s content.

2. No guaranteed results

Case studies describe systems I have designed and built. They don’t promise that you will get the same results. Every business is different, and outcomes depend on many things outside my control. Illustrations of projects are conceptual and are not screenshots of real systems or client data.

3. Working with me

Nothing on the site is an offer to provide services, and sending me a message does not create a client, consulting, training or employment relationship. Any consulting, training, speaking or other work only starts once we have both signed a separate written agreement. If that agreement says something different from these terms, the signed agreement wins.

4. Courses and training

Academy programmes are shown as planned or open for interest. Their content, format, dates and prices may change and are only confirmed in writing. Nothing on the site says that any programme is eligible for funding, grants or claims under any scheme, including HRD Corp, unless that is stated explicitly for that programme.

5. Books

Books are sold and delivered by Amazon or other retailers, not by me. Purchases, payments, delivery and refunds are handled by the retailer under its own terms.

6. Podcast and guests

Opinions shared by guests on The Hassie Experience are their own and don’t necessarily reflect mine. Episodes are hosted and played through Spotify, under Spotify’s terms.

7. Credentials

Credentials are shown as issued and can be checked with the issuer through the links provided. Logos and badges belong to their owners and are shown only to identify the credential. They don’t mean that the issuer endorses this site or my services.

8. Intellectual property

The site’s text, design, illustrations, code and branding belong to me unless stated otherwise. You may view and share links to the site for personal, non commercial purposes. You may not copy, republish, sell, adapt or use any part of it, including to train AI systems, without my written permission. Third party names, logos and trademarks belong to their owners.

9. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • break any law, including the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act, 2016, while using the site;
  • try to hack, overload, disrupt or gain unauthorised access to the site or its servers;
  • scrape or harvest content or data from the site with automated tools;
  • send spam, malware, or abusive, misleading or unlawful messages through the contact form;
  • pretend to be someone else or misrepresent your connection to anyone.

10. Other websites

The site links to and loads content from other services, such as Amazon, Spotify, Credly and LinkedIn. I don’t control them and I’m not responsible for their content, availability or how they handle your information.

11. The site is provided as it is

The site is provided free of charge, “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent the law allows, I make no promises or warranties of any kind about it, including that it will be accurate, complete, up to date, uninterrupted, secure or free of errors or viruses. I may change, suspend or remove any part of the site at any time without notice.

12. Limits on my liability

To the fullest extent the law allows:

  • I am not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or for any loss of profit, revenue, business, data, goodwill or opportunity, arising from the site or its content;
  • my total liability for any claim arising from the site or these terms is limited to PKR 10,000 (ten thousand Pakistani rupees).

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as liability for fraud. Liability for paid work is governed by the signed agreement for that work.

13. Your responsibility

If you break these terms or the law while using the site, you agree to cover any reasonable losses, costs and legal fees I suffer as a result.

14. Governing law

These terms, and any dispute or claim arising out of or connected with them or the site, are governed by the laws of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, as applied in the Province of Sindh.

15. How disputes are resolved

If you have a concern, please contact me first. We will both try in good faith to settle it within thirty (30) days of a written notice.

If it isn’t settled, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or connected with the site or these terms, including any question about their existence, validity, interpretation or termination, will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the Arbitration Act, 1940.

  • The arbitration will be decided by a sole arbitrator appointed by agreement between the parties or, if they do not agree within thirty (30) days of a written request, appointed in accordance with the Arbitration Act, 1940.
  • The seat and venue of the arbitration will be Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan.
  • The arbitration will be conducted in English, and the proceedings and award will be kept confidential.
  • The award will be final and binding, and judgment on it may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.
  • Disputes will be resolved on an individual basis only. You agree not to bring or join any class, collective or representative action against me.

Subject to this arbitration agreement, the courts at Karachi have exclusive jurisdiction, including for urgent interim relief and for enforcing an award. Nothing in this section stops either side from asking a court for urgent interim relief to protect its rights while an arbitration is pending.

16. Time limit for claims

To the extent the law allows, any claim arising from the site or these terms must be started within one (1) year after the facts giving rise to it first arose. Otherwise it is permanently barred.

17. General

  • If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in full effect.
  • If I don’t enforce a right straight away, I haven’t given it up.
  • These terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the whole agreement between us about the site.
  • I may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top shows the latest version, and continuing to use the site means you accept it.

18. Contact
